    Kivan starts with a composite Longbow +1 and Xan has his Moonblade.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    @Jhart1018 Yeah, it is. Kinda easy to die if you just charge in.
  • jhart1018jhart1018 Member Posts: 909
    Yup. That's my new battle plan. "Never charge."

    Are we just buying arms and armor or are we buying arms, armor, rations, rope, knapsacks, tinderboxes, torches, lockpicks, spell components, change of undies, etc.? And the 20 pack of Super Ultra Mega-size Depends, just in case...

    Everything you want to take with you, you must buy.
  • DelvarianDelvarian Member Posts: 1,232
    I picked a spell caster because they are awesome at low lvls right?

    Okay, Yoshimo has leather armor, a shortbow, and 60 arrows. 20 are in his quiver; the other 40 are in his backpack. Said backpack also contains a week's rations, a waterskin, thieves' picks, a blanket, 2 torches, a flint and steel, and 50 ft. of hemp rope. On his way to the party's rendezvous point, he stuffs dry tinder into his pockets so he'll have somewhere for a spark to catch...
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    Okay. Good times. Please post your thief skills, please.
  • Awong124Awong124 Member Posts: 2,643
    Wow, Kivan has 19/12 STR (too bad it's probably a typo)? And the Composite Longbow +1, nice.

    Kivan's shopping list:
    - Splint Mail
    - Longsword
    - Large Shield
    - Helmet

    I just checked in IWD, I should have enough with a few gp to spare, unless you have different pricing for the items. I don't know if you actually keep track of how many arrows I use or if there's infinite arrows to make things easier. If I have to purchase arrows I'll use what's left to buy arrows.

    And another thing, I think the core rules state that level 1 characters are supposed to get full HP + CON modifier, as opposed to having to roll for hp.

    @Awong124 Fixed the strength thing. And "Core Rules"? You have obviously mistaken this for 3e. :)
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    You rolls yer dice and ya takes ya chances... Or, you know, *I* roll the dice. Same thing.. ;)
  • Awong124Awong124 Member Posts: 2,643
    Even 2E. Whenever you start a new game for BG1, BG2, or IWD, level 1 characters always have max health even if you didn't select max hp on level up in the config.

    Computer game vs. Tabletop. Tabletop rules. :)

    When a Xvart kills someone, sign me up as Eldoth (and could I be a Blade Bard instead of True Bard?)

    -The very happy ex-Sarevok.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    @Evilfuilt Sure. :) You're third on the waitlist.

    I did some searching, max hp at first level was an optional rule introduced in a later revised edition of 2E. So I guess both is acceptable. But Xan will probably die very quickly, lol. Kivan's kind of squishy at the moment, so he'll probably just stick to ranged combat.

    TY, this time I'd be completely blind and play a character with a pretty blank slate (let's see, he's a jerk who cares only about himself, got it...)
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    @Evinfuilt He also seems to have a low opinion of women...

    Women in general? Or just Skie?

  • katastrophekatastrophe Member Posts: 404
    This is going to be interesting...

    Studded leather armour.
    A whip.
    A buckler.
    Enough rope to tie up a willing (or I guess unwilling) individual.
    An Iron Poker. Because.
    Rations for a week.
    A kitten. Cat food for a week (less if I can count on a little support from Boo).
    Some Candles and a small bottle full of glass shards.

    ...If I've gone over my budget, do tell.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    @Awong124 Women in General. He doesn't have a high opinion of Shar-Teel, either, telling her she should be in the kitchen.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    @Katastrophe Nope, you're fine. You want a mace for when the whip isn't enough?
  • katastrophekatastrophe Member Posts: 404
    @LadyRhian Not sure how proficiencies work and whatnot---if she knows which end to whack people with, sure.
  • Awong124Awong124 Member Posts: 2,643
    I want a kitten too!
